90-Day Shield Protocol
Daily CBT micro-sessions adapt to your relapse risk score. On high-risk days, your counselor gets a quiet alert. You get a breathing exercise and a reminder of exactly why you started.
Users who complete the 90-Day Shield report 80% fewer crisis episodes

“I was the person who put vodka in a Hydro Flask for my kid's soccer games. I had convinced myself I was fine. The calculator on this page was the first honest mirror I'd looked into in three years.”
Melissa R.
Marketing Director, Chicago
“I couldn't tell you what happened last Saturday when I started using Sober. Now I can tell you exactly what I did on day 1, day 30, and day 90. The counselor at 2 AM on day 11 — that conversation probably saved my semester.”
Jordan T.
Junior, University of Michigan
“Six weeks out of residential, I was terrified of my own kitchen. The CBT exercises gave me something to do with my hands when the urge hit. My counselor knew my triggers before I fully did.”
